Has anyone tried it? I need a nitetime moisturizer, but all of the products (nite creams/lotions/serums) these days have so many chemicals and strange things in them…

was thinking of getting Josie Maran argan oil from Sephora- has anyone tried this (or another brand) on their face?

Re: Argan Oil on face??

Yup, I got the Argan Oil from Sephora for the same purpose, to use it as a night-time moisturizer, and honestly I couldn't have been more happy. Absolutely love it - I have super dry skin and it really gives the moisture that my skin needs, without making it oily or anything. Absorbs right in, and feels just right. Don't use more than 2 drops though, otherwise it may get a little too much. At first I was a little wary, thinking that it might break me out, considering it is a oil afterall, but so far it's been really good allhumd. I got the smallest size they have, because I wanted to try it first, but I know it's going to last me a LONG time, which is great. :)

^Do you use it by itself or mix it with a toner?

Re: Argan Oil on face??

^ Without anything mixed. Just by itself, that's more than enough.

argan oil is quite expensive. if all u r looking for a good moisturizing oil both rose-hip seed, emu and joboba are good, light oils and way cheaper.

I got the oil from Kiehl's, first thing is that it shows a long list of ingredients on the back????
second it did not work well on my face :( it was very very pricey too :(

oh no :( yeah sometimes they market oils and you think it's just the pure oil but then there's really a ton of other chemicals in it

^ i know, i should not have bought it, it was over 400HKD, too pricey for a not pure oil :(
but it had a big "Argan Oil" on the front. too tricky

I buy argan oil from Makeup Artists Choice, an online site. Its not expensive and works great!

Garden of Wisdom is another site that sells a lot different types of oils cheap.

Price comparison From GOW(garden of wisdom)

rose hip seed 1oz - $5.65(USA)
4 oz- $13.85

joboba Cold pressed -
4oz- $16.30

Emu 0.5oz- $3.85
4oz- $26.7

Argan 1oz- $9.65
4oz- $34.60

1oz =6 tsp which won't last long may be 4 months if u use just one or two drops. but if one can afford it why not. its good for hair and some claim it to work for their wrinkles.

Re: Argan Oil on face??

4 oz is over 100ml which should last a while if you're only using on the face as you only need 1 or 2 drops.

It is twice the price of rosehip oil though. I'm interested to try it out and see how it compares coz as you know, I love RHO lol.

I absolutely love argan oil. That being said, i've also read good things about almond, avacado, and macademia nut oil. I ordered those along with cranberry seed oil. I plan on trying them to see if any of those do a better job on my skin than argan.

Re: Argan Oil on face??

I've been using Argan Oil for my day/night moisturizer, I'm pretty happy, just need a tiny drop and your skin is very soft, I think it has helped with evening out my skintone too

Re: Argan Oil on face??

Just to add.....on Makeup Artist's Choice site....4.5oz Argan Oil is listed for $32. They have free shipping within the U.S. and under their "discounts" section....they almost always have a 15% code (this will take off $4.80). And if you're on their mailing list....at least once a month they send a 20% off code (this will take off $6.40).
